Michele, South Lake Tahoe

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Everything was perfect for us. the staff was super attentive and polite. The breakfast was a wonderful and delicious value. Our room was facing the street, which we loved for ambience but could be a little noisy if you want complete quiet at night and the breeze with the windows open. We highly recommend.
